Moving Time

I was so excited to move and love my new house, but I must say that actually moving SUCKS! Ugh, there is so much that you have to do, and not enough hands to do it. Don't get me wrong, we had so much help (and even more offers than what we took people up on), and even hired movers (if you need movers you should call A-ACE Movers, best in AZ) but then unpacking everything...

Wanted to say thanks to Rae Lynn and Kristen for watching my kids ALL weekend! They went over there Friday night and didn't come home until Sunday morning! They got some much needed cousin time in and Lola really got to know her aunties better! When Rae dropped them off, she wouldn't let me hold her, she kept saying Rae's name.

Also, thank you to Donna! She did all of our laundry that has been piling up for us this weekend! It is so nice to not have to worry about cleaning clothes! Now, I just have to put them away!

Last, but not least, to Frank and Chrissy who showed up before 7am, checked the air (which is not the problem either with the walls, so now I have no clue) and stayed with us the entire day helping put up lights and doggy doors and moving and unpacking!

Today my cable is supposed to be getting turned on between 10 and 12. My uncle (I couldn't find anyone else, and I asked almost EVERYONE I knew) can't be there until 10:30 or so, so I am banking that they will show up late. When I called to cancel this morning, they gave me an ETA of 11:33, so I called my uncle to see if his offer still stood and he said yes! Now I just have to count on COX to show up late, which they do every single time anyway, but now that I need them to be late today, they will probably be there at 10 and then I will be without cable and internet until Saturday, and I just might die!

***COX showed up early, but so did my uncle! Woohoo!

Hope everyone had a great weekend - back to work!

WOOO HOOO on COX. I'm glad that is all over with and sorry again for that. Actually sorry for the whole weekend. You know I would have been there if I wasn't laying on a hospital bed feeling like I was dying. Hopefully I will get some answers on Thurs.

Can't wait to see your new casa all moved in. Maybe tonight??

That definitely brings back memories of our move- quite stressful, but all worth it! I was stressin' so hard about: selling my condo, getting moved to M's parents, getting married, then moving again to our new house!
I know I keep saying it, but I seriously cannot wait to see the house! I'm ready for in invite ANY time you want! (hint, hint) haaa

Packing, unpacking, and moving is the worst! The end result is almost always worth it though. It's a good thing you had movers!

Congrats on the new house. Moving does suck and AAce Movers are the best. Can't wait to see some pictures of the house once your all settled in.
